ummmm I didn't see your plate, but I suppose it could have been me

Were they breaking the speed... I mean, driving appropriately?


@Rota As for the car purchase, I hated the dealer I bought from and even though I am super happy with the vehicle and the color I had a terrible experience and the sales guy literally asked me if I was sure I could handle the vehicle and suggested I buy a corolla S instead.

I'm pretty sure it was Kevin. But would have been cool if two sexy guys waved me down lol

Hey all,

I'm looking to pick up a BRZ Limited in the next couple months. Can anyone tell me about their experiences at the local AZ dealers? Mainly what to expect with pricing, who to avoid, etc. I got a quote from Clint up in Colorado that sounds really tempting but if I can buy here I'd prefer that.


I bought my FRS in February of 2013 at a certain east valley Toyota dealer. I had a great experience through shopping and with the sales guy but then....


In the final delivery steps they were going to fill the tank but they only had 87 octane at the dealership. They tried convincing me this was fine but I told them they had to go get 91 from the gas station down the street. They sent someone in the car to go and come back and they were gone for what seemed like a very long time for a quick gas trip. I was standing outside when the kid driving it finally came back and immediately caught the smell of molten clutch... I was furious and the dealership tried playing dumb that they just "polished the wheels too much it was just burning off the wheels" they couldn't stand behind that for long as it clearly was not the case.


Moral of the story is where ever you go for the BRZ just make sure to keep an eye on how it gets treated by people behind the scenes at the dealer who don't have a stake in your car's well being after its sold. I hope what happened to me was a one in a million but you never know.

Got the turbo working......wait what. That's right, I got boost fixed which was only hitting 1psi. I hit 22psi! Issue was vacuum leaks all over the place, torn hoses all over the place. Never worked on a boosted car before. .... i should mention this is on a 1995 volvo 850 Wagon my gf picked up on craigslist. Lol.

Hey I'm happy I got the damn thing to pull as hard as I have...let alone running so well. Actually learned a lot just from hanging out and talking turbos with you guys.

Now back to the jeep.

Hi, I just got an 86 'you've been spotted' card. I wasn't aware this forum existed. Is there an introductory Thread, or is it just tagging on to this one?
